Where to begin when the question has been popped? Often for brides-to-be it all starts with the dress, which can be a daunting experience in uncharted territories. Budgets can dictate designers ( – or not) or where to look, however this still leaves an infinite number of options regardless of price.

A good way to start this epic journey, can be to decide on which dress silhouette works best for your shape and style. After all, your wedding day will be you looking your absolute best – so consider what you want to show-off (or not) with the best dress for you.

Here’s a few key bridal dress silhouettes, ideal for all shapes and sizes.

Ball Gown

A traditional, full-length ‘‘fairy tale’ wedding dress with a fitted bodice and full skirt flairing at the waist. Ideal to make waists smaller - particularly with a lace-up bodice and full skirt. Ideal for most shapes and looks great on pears. Can be overwhelming for petites.
